It didn't take much longer before Bo Jian and his son returned. Soon enough, the gentle whistling sound of rushing water echoed along the riverbank.
Bo Jian hadn't transformed into his massive full orca form...otherwise, the entire river would have overflowed from his sheer size! Instead, he stayed in his merman form while his son swam freely alongside him.
The moment the little orca spotted his mother on the shore, he poked his shiny head right out of the water, letting out a happy squeak.
Bo Jian stepped onto the muddy riverbank, smoothly shifting into his human form.
Instantly forgetting his previous embarrassment, Manis scrambled over to the water's edge to pet the little orca. "Hey little fry! Do you remember your uncle?"
The little orca tilted his head, looking completely confused for a second. He blinked his large, dark eyes, looking left and right, before finally giving an eager nod.
